Are you Lottie's grandson?

Comment by Craig Albert Faulkner on January 23, 2013 at 7:39pm

Many of my relatives on my Grandmother Faulkner side lived the life commercial fishing on Lake of the Woods/Shoal Lake over the last 3 generations but now the fishing is gone. The Holmstrom family of Kenora with relations by marriage to the Folster family are my closest cousins. I spent time as a youth on the Lake fishing & working on filling ice houses as part of my finest memories. Any ASK member who may know how to research history of fisherfolk in the area may be interested in becoming an email friend. Caution--Im not proficient with this site yet but am looking for contact. Thanks, Craig
